JOHANNESBURG (miningweekly.com) – Sibanye Gold received seven awards for safety in the gold sector at the Southern African Institute of Mining and Metallurgy (SAIMM) MineSafe 2014 Conference, held on August 22.

Three of Sibanye’s operations took top honours in the gold industry.

This achievement was significant given that, for the first time in 110 years, the mining industry recorded fewer than 100 fatalities across the various sectors.

“This is the result of a consistent focus on safety and a collective effort from all our employees and I am very pleased with the continued improvements in safety Sibanye has achieved,” commented CEO Neal Froneman.

He added that the company recognised the need to provide employees with a safer and more productive operating environment and had, thus, recently launched a safe technology function at an executive level, which would assess and develop appropriate technology to improve productivity and safety.
